I dont know if any of you have used it before but the website for it is http://www.archive.org

About the Internet Archive

The Internet Archive was founded in 1996 in order to build a digital library and other cultural artifacts in digital form, with the purpose of offering permanent and free access to researchers, historians, scholars, and the general public. The Archive holds a collection of archived web pages, dating from 1996 and comprising 100 terabytes. Since 1999, the Archive has expanded its collections to include: a September 11 television and online catalog; an Election 2000 online library; archived movies from 1903-1973; and other documents. Located in San Francisco, the Archive is a 501(c)(3) public nonprofit whose benefactors include Alexa Internet, AT&T Research, Compaq, the Kahle/Austin Foundation, Prelinger Archives, Quantum DLT, Xerox PARC, the Library of Congress, and the National Science Foundation.

Take a look at the following websites with The Wayback Machine and find some intersting things out:

www.microsoft.com
www.google.com
www.gmail.com (now this one is worth a look)
www.fbi.gov
www.nasa.gov

This is only a selection you can explore the whole internet archive.

Now go and enjoy.
